I'd recommend the following.<BR/><BR/>1) Get Josh Smith the ball in the high- or low-post a lot in the half-court. He's shown the ability to get to the rim from that spot even when his defender plays off of him. He's also a far better passer when he's relatively stationary.<BR/><BR/>2) Get the ball to Horford in the post more often. <BR/><BR/>3) Get the ball to Joe Johnson and (especially) Marvin Williams in the post less often. Let them knock down jump shots.<BR/><BR/>4) Take advantage of Anthony Johnson's surprisingly competent season by installing Acie Law IV as the backup point guard and letting him run pick-and-roll with Pachulia or Horford as much as possible with the second unit.<BR/><BR/>Woodson used three point guards in the <I>first 10 minutes</I> last night for discernible reason.<BR/><BR/>Long term they still need a good point guard, more shooters, and another big man but I don't think this team has to be this poor (22nd in the league as of today) offensively.Bret LaGreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12000566742639583055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8912756.post-69806895857557358232008-01-30T12:34:00.000-05:002008-01-30T12:34:00.000-05:00How much of the offensive problems is Woodson and ...How much of the offensive problems is Woodson and how much is the roster? Does the team need coaching heads to roll more or a wholesale roster shakeup (aside from Joe, Horford, Marvin, and Childress presumably)?Ronnoreply@blogger.com
